This morning I received a note and a link to ThanksGivingMovie with some thoughts and insights I want to share with you as I PRAISE HIM with a loud voice, a song, and hands lifted high. These thoughts led me right to scriptures that filled me with joy. May you be filled with joy as He brings to your remembrance His Word as you give thanks and overcome the world.
Give Thanks! ...and then Give Thanks again because this time of year is a wonderful time to transform difficulties into insights and conflicts into genuine communication.
Be the transformer. Live every moment of this upcoming holiday season with the awareness that your thoughts, feelings and reactions have a profound impact on everyone and everything.
Bring compassion into your workplace and homes. Begin again and again and again as you become more and more proficient at shifting your perception and regulating your emotions.
Be grateful. Be appreciative of idiosyncrasies. Be understanding of the human condition. Give thanks for the opportunities to love, just for the sake of loving and enjoying one another. Compassion for oneself and for others ... gets it done!
Stop feeling your difficulties deeply. Stop dramatizing them. Stop talking about them. Stop listening to media. You cannot judge and transform in the same instant! Release fear and take hold of your thinking because you are here to be the Master of ALL Good: to be the difference you want to make! Reach for compassion. Be the transformer that you already are.
When we challenge the brain with new ways of thinking about things, we are literally creating new physical structures within it, i.e., neurological pathways. The minutest change can create tremendous effects - it can cascade and create many new and amazing improvements.
Thanks, Mary, for the Word you've brought to my mind and for your obedience to His calling.
RENEW MY MIND daily God. Help me to live intentionally according to Your Word. Bring Your Word to my remembrance, help me to NOT be conformed to the world, murmurring and complaining about it, rather keep my mind stayed on Your Greatness and Power, remind me that YOUR MERCIES FAIL NOT! They are new every morning.
As David says, remind me, that I need Your mercy and Your grace, for I am exceedingly filled with contempt by the world. Your grace, and power, and love is in my heart BECAUSE of Jesus who lives in me. By His sacrifice, He lives in me and He has overcome the world. He will help me. HIS WORD IS TRUE.
I praise You and place my confidence in YOU alone. Help me transform contempt into confidence
Psalms 123:1-4 (KJV) 1 Unto thee lift I up mine eyes, O thou that dwellest in the heavens.
2 Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the LORD our God, until that he have mercy upon us.
3 Have mercy upon us, O LORD, have mercy upon us: for we are exceedingly filled with contempt.
4 Our soul is exceedingly filled with the scorning of those that are at ease, and with the contempt of the proud.
